Keywords:polymer gel dosimeter, radiation therapy, MRI

With rapid advances being made in radiotherapy treatment, three dimensional (3D) dose measurement techniques of great precision are required more than ever before. It is expected that 3D polymer gel dosimeters will satisfy clinical needs for an effective detector that can measure the complex 3D dose distributions. In this presentation, the fundamental characteristics and an application of 3D polymer gel dosimeters are reviewed.
